2010 Mercedes-Benz Sport Cars Biome Concept

Born out of the 2010 LA Auto Show’s Los Angeles Design Challenge, in which automotive designers are given free range to envision the future of transportation, the Biome is meant to blend seamlessly into the planet’s ecosystem. That means all components of the 2010 Mercedes-Benz Sport Cars Biome Concept car are “grown” organically, and it emits pure oxygen and is fully compostable at the end of its service life.

The basis for the Biome Concept is a vehicle that "grows in a completely organic environment from seeds sown in a nursery." Not only that, but it's powered by a combination of the sun and a chemical bond from an imaginary liquid dubbed BioNectar4534. It's all natural, all organic and all science fiction.

"As the inventor of the motor car, we wanted to illustrate the vision of the perfect vehicle of the future, which is created and functions in complete symbiosis with nature. The Mercedes-Benz BIOME is a natural technology hybrid, and forms part of our earth's ecosystem. It grows and thrives like the leaves on a tree" according to Hubert Lee, Head of the Mercedes-Benz Advanced Design Studios in Carlsbad.

This year the competition had called for the creation of a vision of a safe and comfortable 2+2 compact car featuring good handling and a first-class design, and weighing only 1,000 lbs (around 454 kg/kerb weight).

The 2010 Mercedes-Benz Sport Cars Biome Concept symbiosis vehicle is made from an ultralight material called BioFibre and tips the scales at just 875.5 lbs (around 394 kg). This material is significantly lighter than metal or plastic, yet more robust than steel. BioFibre is grown from proprietary DNA in the Mercedes-Benz nursery, where it collects energy from the sun and stores it in a liquid chemical bond called BioNectar4534.

The 2010 Mercedes-Benz Sport Cars Biome Concept is powered by BioNectar4534, which is stored in the BioFibre material of the chassis, interior, and wheels. In addition, Mercedes-Benz has developed a technology to equip trees with special receptors which can collect the excess solar energy and turn it into BioNectar4534. This creates a direct link with nature's energy sources and acts as an incentive to cover mobility energy requirements through more trees and at the same time maintain natural resources.

The Los Angeles Design Challenge is part of the Design Los Angeles conference, taking place from 17 to 18 November 2010 as part of the Los Angeles Auto Show.

2011 Mercedes-Benz E350 BlueTec Diesel - Short Take Road Test

The Mercedes-Benz diesel-powered mid-size sedan is as durable a notion as you’ll find in autodom. Mercedes created the world’s first production diesel-powered passenger car in 1935 and began putting oil burners in its mid-sizers (a.k.a. Pontons) in 1955. The very words “Mercedes diesel” conjure all kinds of associations, from college professors who have forsaken their Peugeots, to wiry German mechanics, to cab drivers in Kabul. It’s an archetype; a 911 Turbo for meerschaum-smoking squares, a Shelby Mustang for people who got beat up in high school. Let’s see how this newest one, the E350 BlueTec, stacks up, shall we?

Stirring Diesel into the E-class Formula

In every regard save for its powerplant, the E350 BlueTec is a regular E350. It shares the mainstream sedan’s body, seven-speed manumatic transmission, coil-spring and multilink suspension, long-haul seats, and no-BS interior. But the car’s 3.0-liter diesel engine drastically alters the nature of the beast.

Unlike the gas-powered E-class’s 3.5-liter, 90-degree V-6, the diesel mill is smaller by half a liter and keeps just 72 degrees between the banks. This engine first came to the U.S. under the hood of the 2006 E320 diesel, but it’s now fitted with Mercedes’ urea-injection system that scrubs the exhaust clean of almost all its NOx emissions and makes the car 50-state legal. Producing just 210 hp, the diesel V-6 packs a 400-lb-ft wallop; that’s more torque than the E550 sedan’s 391 lb-ft rating.

Acceleration isn’t nearly as astounding as those torque figures might suggest. Our test car posted a tepid 7.2-second 0-to-60 time, nearly a second off the 258-pound-footed, gas-powered E350’s 6.3 seconds. We attribute some of this laggardlyness to our diesel’s 300 extra pounds, most of it exhaust-scrubbing hardware, but also to the fact that the engine tops out, in diesel fashion, at a low 4500 rpm. And so, predictably, the BlueTec ran out of thrust before its gas-powered sibling, the disparity approaching almost a full second as the diesel went through the 30-to-50-mph, 50-to-70-mph, and quarter-mile drills.

The character of the engine, however, is perfectly matched to that of the car—solid, firm, unbreakable. It’s less coarse and clattering than you’d imagine a diesel to be, even bettering the sound-level readings we took from the regular E350 at wide-open throttle and 70-mph cruise. The steering is slow, a bit numb, and not very linear; it gets more faithful with g-loads in the tires. Stopping the car in an unspectacular 172 feet, the brakes are nevertheless deliberate and predictable. The ride is absolutely stable, and the car tracks with locomotive determination. Responses are stout; this is a linebacker, not a wide receiver.

Aside from torque, the other great advantage of diesel engines is their range. The higher energy density of the fuel compared with gas means that cars like the E350 BlueTec burn juice at a slower rate. The EPA pegs the BlueTec at 22 mpg city/33 highway/26 combined versus the regular E350’s 17/24/19—that’s roughly 30 percent higher across the board. We came up far, far short of that in our testing, with a combined 21 mpg. This particular car’s economy suffered because we used it as part of our 10Best drive, whereupon the tar was fairly beaten out of the thing. We’ve enjoyed 35-mpg highway cruises in other contemporary E-class diesels.

Purely a Luxury Car

At $51,775, the E350 BlueTec runs $1500 more than its gas-powered sibling. Our test car added $6450 via the Premium Package 2 with its navigation, Harman/Kardon audio, HID headlamps, and heated seats, among much else (the Sport package on our car is a no-cost option). But nothing approaching the full cost of the BlueTec system’s hardware appears to be passed along to the consumer, and fuel savings promise to be significant if diesel prices remain close to those of gasoline. About that urea, though: If you’re not planning on harvesting and refining it yourself, expect to spend about $1500 on the stuff for every 100,000 miles you drive, thereby negating a large chunk of the fuel savings. Note that we said every 100,000 miles. The E-class diesel may be more expensive to buy and just as expensive to run overall, but it will keep going until you croak. For this reason, Mercedes diesel loyalists tend toward the evangelical, and the diesel version traditionally holds its value better than any other E-class.

There’s another, subtler rationale for their allegiance. Over the past quarter-century, the definition of a luxury car has expanded to include a high degree of sportiness. Not everyone wants that, especially the aforesaid nerds. So it’s refreshing and even a bit nostalgic to be confronted with a high-end sedan such as the E350 BlueTec, a car that defines luxury as the reduction of stress.

2012 Mercedes-Benz CLS550 - First Drive Review

When it went on sale in the United States in 2005, the E-class–based CLS popularized the “four-door coupe” shape via a plunging roofline and a slim greenhouse, and would earn 40,000 sales in the U.S. over the next five years. It also spawned a number of copycat designs such as the Audi A7, the Volkswagen CC, and the Jaguar XF.

The second-generation CLS, which goes on sale here early next summer as a 2012 model, isn’t as pretty as the first one. The new body is a mixture of unimpeachable proportions and jarring design details. The overall envelope is elegant, but Mercedes embroiders it with brash details such as aggressive air scoops around the front bumper and sharp creases along the flanks.

As with virtually every car that comes to market these days, the CLS is bigger than the vehicle it replaces. The wheelbase has grown from 112.4 inches to 113.2, and the overall length is now 194.5 inches, up from 193.6. The car is slightly taller and wider, at 55.8 and 74.1 inches, respectively. The running gear comes from the new E-class sedan, but the CLS has a slightly wider track in front and back.

Although it’s still a striking car, the CLS places equal emphasis on its bevy of safety features. There are nine standard airbags and no fewer than 12 assistance systems. New among these are three active systems to help with parking, staying in the appropriate lane, and monitoring blind spots. The ­latter doesn’t merely alert a driver to a car in a blind spot; it uses the brakes to tug the CLS away from an approaching vehicle.

More important to enthusiasts, Mercedes is using its new 4.7-liter, direct-injection twin-turbo V-8 in place of a naturally aspirated 5.5-liter engine. (It seems that Mercedes’ naming conventions have followed BMW’s lead, in that they tell you ­absolutely nothing about what’s underhood.) This engine made its debut in the CL550, where it was rated at 429 horsepower. In the CLS, the power is down to 402, although that’s still 20 more horses than in the previous CLS550. The old engine made 391 pound-feet of torque, which grows here to 443, available from 1600 rpm.

Mercedes claims the twin-turbo engine is 10 to 15 percent more fuel efficient, thanks to the smaller displacement, direct injection, and a stop-start system that will not come to the U.S. on this engine, instead waiting to appear on the upcoming AMG model. The engine is mated to a seven-speed automatic transmission, and all-wheel drive will be available later. Performance should remain similar to that of the previous model; the last CLS550 we tested managed the 0-to-60-mph sprint in 4.7 seconds. But by  the middle of next year when the car launches here, it’s likely that Mercedes also will introduce the CLS63 with a twin-turbo 5.5-liter V-8 making about 550 horsepower.

Compared with the previous model, the new CLS interior provides a little more shoulder room (up by 0.9 and 0.5 inch, front and rear), thanks to slimmer door trim. The interior quality is also better, with actual metal rather than plastic on some of the switches, real wood panels, and gorgeous, thick leather. The old, fiddly COMAND ­system used to access the navigation, audio, and telematics is gone, replaced by an iDrive-style controller. Overall, the quality and ambience come close to those of the S-class.

Over the road, the CLS550 provides something similar to the E550 experience—which is to say, biased toward luxury rather than sport. The engine sounds good, but it’s very muted, and under full throttle the V-8 growl fades beneath a blanket of turbo whoosh. The power delivery is sensational, though, with no perceptible turbo lag.

The air suspension and continuously variable damping combine for a plush highway ride. Ultimately, however, it lacks a convincing degree of athleticism: Though precise and linear, the new electric power steering provides far more feedback than does the chassis, which is pretty inert.

The CLS is still an expressive machine, and it remains a stylish alternative to an E550 sedan. We just wish it had a little more fire. Perhaps the upcoming CLS63 AMG will satisfy  that desire.

There are many more legendary car models thanks to their car door. No wonder that today many cars on display at the Paris International Motor Show 2010 has a door that is unique.

In 1954, Mercedes-Benz introduced the Mercedes-Benz 300 SL. This car became famous thanks to extraordinary ability. But not only that, this car is legendary because the door could be opened up like wings of a dove (gullwing).

If Mercedes-Benz 300 SL-known thanks to the dove-wing doors, the Rolls-Royce precisely known thanks to a typical door, suicide door.

Named suicide because the doors are often open a bit because of high winds. In addition, the gangsters chose suicide car door because it can easily push someone from their car.

Some cars are famous thanks to this door is Lamborghini Murciellago and Land Rover Range Stormer. There is another interesting car door, door or door name butterfly butterfly.

This door is not much different from the scissor door. The difference is, if the scissor door lifted up, the butterfly lifted exit door. The car door is even more popular after being used on the McLaren F1.

Well, some forms of this door can be witnessed in the arena of the Paris International Motor Show 2010. Some concept cars and passenger carmasih wear these doors. The goal, in addition to attract attention, also seeks to become legendary as the previous mobilmobil.

In the event the Paris International Motor Show, which use a scissor door car that Citroen and Kia Pop.Mobil Survolt it appear more exotic French model thanks to an extraordinary door.

Compatriot Citroen, Renault, just choose another flow. Renault concept car DeZir appear confident with the car door butterfly. DeZir is a special car for adopting technology KERS (kinetic energy recovery system), which is used in the world of F1.

The same is done by KIA Pop.as mini-shaped concept car, the choice of butterfly doors is a smart move. This car became more so roomy when the door opened upward. Meanwhile, the suicide door is represented by the Nissan Townpod.

The door is modified by applying front and back open width.so, in terms of security can be guaranteed well.

Mercedes-Benz intends to bring new models are planned to be a special sale in Indonesia. Is this candidate a la Mercy cheap car?

When it is confirmed to Deputy Director of Marketing PT Mercedes-Benz Indonesia (MBI) Yuniadi Hartono, he had a different answer.

"Maybe a car cheap, but cheap for the size of a Mercedes car that had been there," he said when met at the Hotel Kempinski, Jakarta, Tuesday (05/10/2010).

He claimed, for the price range of Rp300 million to Rp500 million Mercedes-Benz cars are planned to be equipped with engines below 2,000 cc will be the most premium car in its segment.

"Because if we look down the 2,000 cc class definitely worth Rp100 million range, while above 2,000 cc is 300 million. So arguably we will remain a premium," said Yuniadi.

He also argued, a number of German brand loyal consumers sometimes need a compact car for their daily needs but want to still look luxurious.

"Like the bike, there are others Rp1 million to Rp40 million, whereas the same needs. So did this car, our customers may need a small car for daily use and unfortunately if we are using the C-Class, E-Class or S-Class, but still want a car with luxury, comfort, and safety is high, "he said.

What is clear, the car is scheduled to appear at the world premiere in 2012 it will be assembled at the MBI factory in Indonesia and are made available to the market in Indonesia.

"This is really a new model of the platform which is also new, the shape can be A-Class, B-Class or Mini SUV," he said.
